Directions

  1. Use masking tape or colorful tape to make several different shapes on the floor.

  3. If you like, make a Shape Cube with the same shapes on it as you have taped on the floor.
  4. Throw the Shape Cube into the air and when it lands, have your child move to the same shape as is displayed on the top of the cube.
